    Finally a friendly worth watching. Fantastic fixture, brings back loads of memories. I was 6 when the World Cup 70 was on, can remember the old man going mental about how great Pele was. But his favourite was Garrincha, he used to make me and my brothers line up in a wall and try and do banana shots round us!! Think social services would be involved these days!!

    Also a terrific read about Bobby Moore, who dies 20 years ago at age 51. Tragic.

    I expect us to score at least once. But I expect Brazil to match that and possibly go further.

    England 2-3 Brazil

    England have only beaten Brazil once in my lifetime.

    I can't see it happening this time either.

    Brazil should win comfortably, there is a few players im looking forward to seeing

    Dante, Munich defender on top form

    Paulinho, Strong, powerful Corinthians player linked with Europe's top Clubs

    Ronaldinho for old times stake

    Lucas Moura, just signed for PSG Previously, he had been at Sao Paulo, playmaker

    Hulk sold his soul for $$$$$$$$$$ and now is a forgotten man at Zenit St Petersburg

    Neymar, Santos, the World's top clubs are queuing up to buy the new Pele

    Im going for a 3-0 Brazil result

    That's one more time than me. I've never seen it.

    Closest that I remember us getting to beating them was probably 2002 WC.

    Unless you're only talking competitively then they only secured an injury time equalizer back in 2007 at Wembley, so we were pretty close there.

    Brazil's only weak spot is the aging Keeper, and i doubt Ronaldinho will have the legs in Midfield as he once did

    Nobody who saw me injure myself on Sunday, would confuse me with Jermaine Defoe.

    Jermaine Jackson maybe. <laugh>

    Hart
    Johnson Lescott Cahill Cole
    Lennon Gerrard Wilshere Milner
    Rooney Walcott

    That's what I'd play, although if Sturridge was fit I'd have him playing ahead of Rooney.
